Details:
Transmitting from the confines of their studio bunker in Lebanon, Ohio, U.S.A… it’s The Whathaveya!!! Beginning in late-2005, Brian Hoops (vox, guitar), Mike Belodayton (guitar, vox), and W.M. Muthert (drums) joined forces for series of lo-fi recording sessions. The trio threw conventional recording techniques out the window and embarked on a musical journey to reconstruct the rock-n-roll landscape. The end result being a no-compromise record harking back to the DIY days of honest rock-n-roll… Relying on the quirky combination of Hoops'' easily “digested like a razorblade” lyrical hooks, Belodayton’s off-kilter guitar, and Muthert''s Bonham-like beats, The Whathaveya offer up a diverse collection of ultra-catchy indie-rock gems on their debut effort, Explodes!

Here’s what some others have had to say…

“Quirky tunes that are like a mish-mash of all sorts into one quirky rock n’ roller coaster ride. If you love Swedish band The Hives then Ohio quartet The Whathaveya might just be for you. Listening to tracks from the band’s debut Explodes! turns out to be quite an experience; it is both very trippy and very raucous. Piecing together lyrics in a weird and wonderful way…”
- The LPM Voice: Issue #15

“Churning up out of the primordial ooze in the outpost of Lebanon, new outfit The Whathaveya dish out some raw, but melodic, garage/punk recalling Mudhoney, early GBV, and any other trashy, lo-fi band you wanna mention from that era....”
-Kyle Melton / The Buddha Den

“You know that feeling. That feeling during that split second before everything falls apart. Whatever THAT is called... It goes beyond desperation, but it can be defined as a desperate feeling. It goes beyond danger, but it can be described as being dangerous. Doom. Uncertainty. Dread. It''s that feeling you get when you willingly commit a senseless crime of vandalism, and how that feeling might feel good even though what you did might be bad. It''s all definitions man, and any which way you want to define it... The Whathaveya Explodes! is that certain feelings soundtrack. This is the sort of CD that makes me wanna believe in a life of crime. I wanna break, I wanna destroy! I wanna drive around in a car with 150,000 miles on a noisy engine that could die at any minute and throw empty 40 ounce bottles at pedestrians... or maybe eggs at joggers from the back of a pickup truck.... Ladies and gentlemen, for fucks sake, BE CAREFUL with this one! Rip rock raunch thrown-dirt-in-the-eyes garage rock and roll with moments of pure genius. Imagine JETHRO TULL if they drank LSD laced whiskey as opposed to wine... And had subtle keyboards instead of flutes. Imagine a true midwest grit reeking-original version of THE KNOCKOUT PILLS… I can even hear some subtle BRAINIAC in there... This CD’s one of those that don''t come along to often... Explodes! is the sort of CD that makes you wish you could kick yourself in the balls. Dig new classics. Anytown USA, watch out...”
-Shawn Abnoxious / The Neus Subjex
